I know it's hardly possible, because it seems musical producers are not keen to do so, but I'll love to see the release of this musical on DVD. Better yet, a three DVD set with performances from UK, Australia and USA.

At least they could offer a "making off" DVD containing interviews, auditions, training, and two or three complete scenes of the show (it comes to mind "Solidarity", "Expressing Yourself" and "Electricity") plus the curtain call. All of this is already recorded, and most is available on Youtube. It would be nice to have it in good quality, and of course in a DVD box with a booklet plenty of pictures, lyrics, etc.

As told before, a set of postcards of all the billys past and present would be a nice souvenir.

How about an ongoing multivolume photographic archive of each of the three original productions (London, Sydney, and NY)? The first volume of the London one, of course, is Through the Lens. Now we need one for Sydney and NY. I have not included Melbourne or Chicago, as they are the "second generation" productions in their respective countries, but perhaps a record of those, plus tours, could also eventually be compiled into a volume as well.

I'd like signed postcards of the Billys, individually signed like they did the posters, a Broadway Cast Recording, and a DVD, something on the lines that Wendy suggested. I doubt whether they'd do one of the whole show, though! An updated "Through the Lens" would be good too, but a bit cheaper than £40! It could feature the shows in London, Sydney, Melbourne and New York. There, I don't want much, do I? :lol:

How about selling the Polaroid photos that Michael takes of Billy in Expressing Yourself.

Nice, but when I was at the shows, I specifically watch if the photo develops and it didn't.
I think they don't make them anymore, Polaroid, or they still do?
